Product CAB-10270 | last week

sad to see the prolific chip in here. There is an identical looking adaptor which has the FTDI chip in it. I prefer the FTDI in every way and have half a dozen of those adaptors that look otherwise like this in service 24/7 on my Mac server without difficulty. I wont waste time messing around with the prolific ones anymore.

And I too have now lost parts due to this pinout. Was getting really close to getting that xBee working too before I cooked it. The pinout on the one I got is correct as far as the datasheet is concerned and I had it working once. Then rebuilt the power supply on the breadboard from my memory of the 5v one which is totally different. PLEASE NOTE: this pinout is not the same as the millions of other regulators you’ve used.

I noticed that Wiznet posted the configuration packet information for this board making it possible for me to do a Macintosh configuration utility. I haven’t tested all the fields and there seem to be some discrepancies in the documentation but i’ve used this successfully to locate and configure my boards to work with without having to resort to windows or wine.

The description above notes “simple configuration over serial interface” but the only option for setup I can see is via their windows program over ethernet.
Is there documentation for the serial setup? Is there no documentation of the protocol for talking to it over ethernet?
